Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor Demo out now on Xbox Live

The demo for Capcom’s upcoming Kinect-based, mech-controlling, World War II-styled shooter Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor has been quietly placed online for download on Xbox Live.

The demo is the first chance for the public to give the controls a go. The original Steel Battalion shipped with a gigantic 40 button controller – but this replaces much of that with Kinect gestures that are used in tandem with the regular 360 controller.
